EVENTS
'Fellow Travelers' at Seattle Opera
“Fellow Travelers” is a political thriller, a heart-wrenching love story, and a musical triumph. When it premiered ten years ago, "Fellow Travelers” was named among "The Best Classical Music of 2016" by The New York Times, and Schmopera called it "an embarrassment of riches...certainly worthy of the buzz it has generated."
"Still/Here": Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company
The groundbreaking dance theater work by Bill T. Jones shatters boundaries between the personal and the political, exemplifying a form of dance that is uniquely American. At the heart of the piece are the experiences of people living with life-threatening illness: their gestures inform the choreography, their words the lyrics, their images the stage; they will always be Still/Here.
